I think whatever generation you're in has a nostalgia for the generations past and the generations you weren't in.

When our culture shifts, it tends to overcorrect, throwing out everything associated with an era we've moved past, rather than saving what was good and combining it with what is new.

I've become convinced that nostalgia is a fundamentally unhealthy modality. When you see it, it's usually attached to something else that's really, seriously bad. I don't traffic in nostalgia. We're becoming a global culture.

I've always loved the future. But I must say the future changes a lot quicker than it used to. An era used to last thirty or forty years - now we're lucky if it's five.

I don't have a great nostalgia for the past.

When I say I hate nostalgia, I hate things set in the recent past where everything is shiny and new.

You can embrace nostalgia and history and tradition at the same time - it has to progress or it can't survive.

I'm not the sort to wallow in nostalgia about the good old days.

Our culture's obsession with vintage objects has rendered us unable to separate history from nostalgia. People want heart. They want a chaser of emotion with their aesthetics.

Nostalgia is not what it used to be.
